The UIAA equipment standard provides a baseline for equipment performance in a test lab under controlled conditions on new equipment. Although these test conditions are relevant to the conditions encountered climbing, conditions encountered at the crags and the condition of the equipment are equally important. This recommendation from the UIAA member federation The British Mountaineering Council (BMC) provides vital equipment information that is NOT explicitly addressed in the standard, particularly failure modes of the equipment and recommendations for the use, inspection, maintenance, and retirement of equipment.

Description
C1 CRAMPONS FOR B1, B2, B3 BOOTS - ICE CRAMPONS FOR HIGH TRACTION.
The Psychi C1 Crampons have been designed and tested thoroughly to ensure they are the perfect tool for the job. They are strong and lightweight which is ideal for many mountain activities. They are perfect for all winter situations. Having been tested in the UK and Europe the crampons had a tough start to life. They spent a full winter being tested in the UK mountains as well as a week long trip to the Alps conquering Mont Blanc on their way to the shelves.
Winter walking, Ski Touring and basic Alpine mountaineering are all within their capabilities. They are a 12 point semi-rigid steel crampon. Fully adjustable foot plate and straps mean that one size fits all. The foot plate has a simple size selection on the bottom and a ziplock style strap allows easy adjustability even with your gloves on. They can be fitted and removed with ease in tough conditions.
C1 CRAMPONS - MAKING LIGHT WORK OF SNOW & ICE
12 Sharp C1 crampon points make light work of snowy and icy conditions and prove just as competent on mixed terrain. Anti snow bailing plates come as standard and prevent any build up of snow or ice on the sole of the crampon making movement over tough terrain smooth and comfortable. The Psychi C1 Crampons are compatible with B1,2 and 3 boots as well as strong high ankle walking shoes. We also provide a Free Psychi crampon bag to store and carry you crampons in.

CertificationCertificationsThe main climbing gear certifications are CE and UIAA--and normally the UIAA creates the rules that the CE body also supports. When possible, we try to list all the certifications the product carries. To sell a climbing product in Europe, the device must be CE certified. There are no official requirements to sell climbing gear in the US. The UIAA certification is a voluntary process. Learn MoreRock and Ice Certifications Guide |
